SAD-IRON.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 474,704, dated May 10, 1892. Application filed December 10 1891- Serial No. 414,596. (No model.)

To aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known thatI, JACKOB WAGNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sad-Irons, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a sad-iron, the peculiar and novel. construction of which is pointed out in the following specification and claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation, partly in section. Fig. 2 is a plan or top view. Fig. 3 is a transverse vertical section in the plane 5r 00, Fig. 2.

In the drawings, the letter A designates the body of my sad-iron, and B' is the handle. The face a of said body is flat and the edge I) is curved inward, and it rises approximately at right angles to the face ct. In the example shown in the drawings the edge 0 of the body A is rectilinear and the ends d d of said body terminate in sharp edges 6 c, and their junctions with the edges 12 and 0 form sharp edges ff. The curved edge I) is useful in pressing pantaloons, in that such curved edge renders it possible to press the lower portions of the legs so that they are outwardly curved to lie smoothly over the instep of the wearer. From the body A rise studs g g, which serve to retain removable and replaceable weights 0 O for the purpose of increasing the weight of the sad-iron, as may be desired, for ironing articles of different nature. These weights are made in the form of fiat plates, which can be readily heated on a stove and adjusted on the studs g g, as may be desired, said studs being by preference made with an oblong cross-section to engage the holes h in the weights 0. 7

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- Y I A sad-iron haviugstuds rising from its bac and provided with removable and replaceable weights composed of fiat plates havingorifices, through which the studs extend, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
